Notes
- Slimming World Greek Pasta Salad
- This salad is perfect for Slimming World provided you make a few minor tweaks. Black olives are only 2 Syns per 25g, feta is part of your healthy extra allowance and remaining ingredients are syn-free. To reduce the overall syn value of the salad omit the olive oil in the dressing and instead spray the salad with olive oil spray which is only half a syn per 5 sprays.
